RIP Violet Hensley

[MuggsyB]

Tremendous loss a few days ago.  She should have gotten far more coverage and respect from the media.

Vaxxed?

[MuggsyB]

Vaxxed?

I'd be very careful attacking luthiers and fiddlers. 🎻 🎻 🎻  The woman was an absolute legend and a national treasure.

And probably dead from the covid jab

I believe it was natural causes.

I have no issues with Lutherans.

Never heard of her. Did she like to eat manatee?

Don't fiddle around with manatees.

[MuggsyB]

She was the "Stradivarius of the Ozarks".  Stop disparaging her.  I'm very surprised she didn't have a guest appearance on Ozark.

That doesn't narrow it down at all

She's not gonna see this (she's dead)

[Uncle Rico]

I believe it was natural causes. 

No one used to die from natural causes before vaccines came along.

She had plenty of time to be offered a guest appearance on Ozarks. She was 109 years old. Lutherans are long-lived people. I'm going to become a Lutheran so I live long enough to see Marquette win another natty.

Isn't like being the best midget basketball player?

Good point. I mean...a real Stradivarius went for 11.25 million in an auction last year.

Muggsy, how much have her fiddles brought at auction?

[CreightonWarrior]

Doubtful, she'd still be a live if she did.

I mean she was from and lived in rural northern Arkansas, do they even have TVs?

They have ATVs, mostly

[Uncle Rico]

I've hated Arkansas ever since they backed down on segregation

Her fiddles are very well crafted and prize possessions.  She was extremely skilled, well into her 100's.

I have been to 49 states. The only one missing is Arkansas. And yes, I plan to go next year.

If my list was still missing 12 states or something, I wouldn't bother. But when you've been to 49, you at least have to have lunch in #50, right?

There must be something worth seeing in Arkansas.

[tower912]

Hot springs.

Oui, eh?

But not to Greenland.

It doesn't have a ton of appeal for me, living wise, but to the person, everyone I know who has lived for any period of time in NW Arkansas in the Fayetteville/Bentonville metro has raved about it.  Natural beauty, quality of life, etc...  And this encompasses people originally from California, the tri State, DC, upstate New York, and Chicagoland.
